CE Hours: 1.5

Description: The virtuous trend towards Minimally-Invasive Endodontics, like all new concepts of treatment, has left confusion, fear, and chaos in its wake. The mission statement of this presentation is to explore the history, the conceptual development, and the best-in-class procedures that define MIE RCT, so that course attendees can better preserve their patient's tooth structure after the procedure is done.

Learning Objectives:  

  • Define--for themselves--how MIE principles can best be brought chairside, in the next RCT they do.
  • Definitively clean MIE canal preparations without major capital investment.
  • Conefit and three-dimensionally obturate MIE preparations without frustration.
